Hi there,

I have a small problem, the hash tags for each tweet displayed are linking through to the twitter search page (https://twitter.com/search-home) rather than to the search results for that particular hash tag.

How can I fix that?

Many thanks,
Sarah

Hi,

Sure, you can see the module on the homepage, right-hand column here: http://www.telcoexec.com

When you click on a hash tag say #telecoms for example (see screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/FqbARrLpeI) they open the generic twitter search page instead of the correct hash tag search results page (https://twitter.com/hashtag/telecoms?src=hash).

So my question is how can I get the hash tag links to open the correct page? Hope that’s a bit clearer.

Many thanks,
Sarah

Hello,

To resolve this issue, please follow these steps :
– Open the file:
modules/mod_jatwitter/helper.php

– Find the code line:
[PHP]$description = preg_replace(‘#(^|[n ])#([^ “tnr<:]*)#i’, ‘$1<a target=”_blank” href=”https://twitter.com/search?q=#$2&src=hash” >$2</a>’, $description);[/PHP]

– And replace it with:
[PHP]$description = preg_replace(‘#(^|[n ])#([^ “tnr<:]*)#i’, ‘$1<a target=”_blank” href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/$2?src=hash” >$2</a>’, $description);[/PHP]
